Achille LAUGE (1861-1944)
The road in spring, 1918 Oil on panel. Signed and dated (19)18 below right. 50 x 65 cm Laugé painted tirelessly the surroundings of his house in Cailhau and its region, in the Aude in Occitania, where he is from. Refusing the anecdote, no one character animates this path so delicately executed in his immediately identifiable neo-impressionist way. Laugé paints here with a divided touch of pure colours for a luminous moment: trees blooming in spring by the side of a road. Bourdelle wrote to him in a letter dated 22 September 1919 "you bring a very personal vision,... .. a luminous air that reigns even in your shadows. "General bibliography on the artist: Nicole Tamburini, Achille Laugé le point, la ligne, la lumière, exhibitions in Carcassonne, Limoux and Douai, Silvana Editoriale, Milan, Paris2009.
